Famous quotes containing the words blind and/or man:
“Natural selection, the blind, unconscious, automatic process which Darwin discovered, and which we now know is the explanation for the existence and apparently purposeful form of all life, has no purpose in mind. It has no mind and no minds eye. It does not plan for the future. It has no vision, no foresight, no sight at all. If it can be said to play the role of the watchmaker in nature, it is the blind watchmaker.”
—Richard Dawkins (b. 1941)
“Out of all those centuries the Greeks can count seven sages at the most, and if anyone looks at them more closely I swear hell not find so much as a half-wise man or even a third of a wise man among them.”
—Desiderius Erasmus (c. 14661536)
